George, when your big brother and your little dog and 1 walked you up to school today, you had no idea how I was feeling.
You were so excited. You had packed and unpacked your pencils and safety scissors in your backpack a dozen times. I am really going to miss those lazy mornings when we waved your brother and sister off to school.
Because you are my youngest. I had learned a few things by the time you came along. I found out that the seemingly endless days of babyhood are gone like lightning. I blinked, and your older siblings（兄弟姐妹）were setting off for school as eagerly as you did this morning, I was one of the lucky ones；I could choose whether to work or not. BY the time it was your turn, the shining prizes of career advancement and a double income had lost their brightness. A splash in the pool with you in your bright red boots or “just one more” rereading of your favorite book, Frog and ’road Are Friends’ meant more. You didn’t go to preschool and I hope that doesn’t hold you back. You learned numbers by helping me count the soda cans we returned to the store.
I have to admit that in my mind’s eye, an image of myself while you’re in school has developed, I see myself updating all the photo albums and starting that novel I always wanted to write. As the summer wound down and more frequent quarrels erupted between you and your siblings. I was looking forward to today. And then this morning, I walked you up the steep hill to your classroom and you gave me one of your characteristically fierce, too-tight hugs. This time you were ready to let go before I was.
Maybe someday you will deliver a kindergartner to the first day of school. When you turn at the door to wave good-bye. he or she will be too deep in conversation with a new friend to notice. Even as you smile. you’11 feel something warm on your cheek…

Before writing a draft, select a topic that you are familiar with, such as accomplishments other than academics, or successes／failures that have altered your lifestyle and outlook. Try to choose a topic that is interesting to the reader. The college essay is a practice used to elicit the real you, it is not the forum for penning your darkest secrets or hidden fears（anything too persona will only bore the reader）. General essays with no topic restrictions are common ground for such blunders. To avoid them, a great deal of thought and brainstorming must go into topic selection.

While you compose your thoughts, don’t forget the real purpose of the essay writing exercise! The essay must divulge a lot about the personality of the writer, yet should riot put the admissions officer to sleep. Don’t forget to mention details／facts／points that you consider important in affecting his decision regarding your admission.

Hoffman, 40, a former senior vice president of a financial company, had what she describes as “one of those extreme jobs.”“I loved working,”she says. But her career path reached a crossroad when her second child was born, and she left her job in February . Hoffman is one of many people who have left the work force to take a break. but she has a position as a consultant. She has described this type of career detour（绕路）—which is more common for women than for men-as “off-ramping.” Typically it occurs when the balancing act of parenting and work becomes too tough.
A study by the center found that more than 90 percent of women who off-ramp want to on-ramp back into the work force eventually. But making the transition back to work is rarely easy. and it is even harder in this economic climate of layoffs and hiring freezes.
Considering some of the obstacles faced by on-rompers, a three-day program called “Greater Returns; Restarting Your Career “was held at Columbia University. The goal of the three days was
to have them walk away with a big shot of confidence.
According to, one school of thought, women looking to make a comeback might even have an advantage in the current economy. Especially if they are looki
